Attach the RFID reader to your vehicle according to your needs.
5.2 Connecting the RFID Reader to a Tracker
RFID reader's connector:
1. Connect the RFID reader to the T1/T333.
Dedicated RS232 ports of the T1/T333 are as follows:
You can use any of the following ways to connect the RFID reader to the T1/T333:
(1) Use the 4-pin to 8-pin cable.
(2) Remove a part of the RFID reader's connector, as shown in the following figure on the left. Then plug the RFID
reader's connector into the tracker ( ).

2. Connect the RFID reader to the MVT600.
Dedicated Wiegand 26 ports of the MVT600 are as follows:
3. Connect the RFID reader to the T366/T366G.
Dedicated RS232 cables of the T366/T366G are as follows:
A. Cut off the RFID reader's connector, as shown in the following figure.

B. Connect the iButton reader to the tracker according to the wiring instructions in the following table.
T366/T366G Cables RFID Reader Cables
VCC (pink; 5 V) Red cable
GND (black) Black cable
Tx cable (purple) Rx cable (yellow)
Rx cable (brown) Tx cable (green)
After the RFID reader is connected to a tracker, power on the tracker, then the RFID reader's indicator will blink red.
When you swipe the RFID card on the RFID reader, the RFID reader's indicator will blink green once and a "beep"
sound will be made. Then the tracker will start to record data.
6 Using RFID
6.1 Starting the Engine by RFID
Before starting the engine, ensure that:
1. The T1/T333/MVT600's input 3 or T366/T366G's input 2 is connected to the engine detection cable.
2. A RFID card has been authorized.
3. The tracker's output 1 is connected to the engine control cable through a relay, as shown in the following figure.
Note: For details about how to authorize a RFID card, see the section 6.4.1 "Authorizing RFID Cards."
4. The RFID ignition function has been enabled by Meitrack Manager or MS03 tracking platform.

Note: For the T366/T366G, you must make sure the RFID event has been enabled. Otherwise, the function will be
unavailable.
6.2 How RFID Works
After swiping the authorized RFID card on the RFID reader, the driver must start the engine within 1 minute.
Otherwise, the tracker's output 1 will be triggered (engine cut-off), and thus the driver cannot start the vehicle. At
the moment, if you want to start the engine, swipe the RFID card again.
6.3 Configuring RFID by Meitrack Manager
1. Connect your tracker to a computer and run Meitrack Manager.
2. Meitrack Manager will automatically detect the device, and the Device tab page for default parameters is
displayed.

3. Select Authorize. On the tab page that is displayed, select RFID on the GPRS column.
Note: If this RFID option is deselected, the MS03 platform cannot collect statistics on RFID event reports after you
swipe a RFID card. The RFID event is enabled by default.
